For Samsung's new 30-inch LCD, the DisplayPort interface transmits graphics data at a total data rate of 10.8Gbps. This speed enables 2560x1600 resolution without any color smear.

In a joint undertaking with Genesis Microchip Inc. Samsung developed its 30" panel using a new four-lane, 2.7Gbps/lane interface chip.

Anyway, this new 30" LCD also offers the company's proprietary Super Patterned Vertical Alignment technology for up to a 180° viewing angle. Mass production is scheduled to begin in the second quarter of 2008, so there's still some time to start saving for it, folks.

I personally still use a 17" CRT monitor hooked up to my laptop (14.2" LCD) in dual-monitor mode, both in the office and at home. What about you, what is your monitor setup like?
